HaPPy BiRthDAy! One year of precious life and many more to follow. You are a sweet miracle Ella and bless us with your smiles every day! Thanks – Looking forward to celebrating the milestones ahead. I promise!!! Kindergarten will be a measure of growth. She will be doing all the things a normal five year old will be doing!

I have been thinking of Ella all day and when I checked the site – I was so touched because since we’re in Denver right now, WE SAW THE SAME RAINBOW. So cool that although we couldn’t celebrate the day with you in person – still cool to get to share that. Love the picture of Josh and Ella —- the resemblance is uncanny!

Hi Miss Ella. We have been thinking about you all day and we just wanted to wish you a very Happy Birthday. God is so good isn’t he. Tina and Josh, thank you again for sharing this journey. Your family continues to minister to us daily. Miss you all and hopefully one day, we will all get together again.

Our entire family just finished singing Happy Birthday to baby Ella’s picture. It is probably a good thing we can’t send sound through e-mail. =)
We are celebrating this milestone with you!
Many blessings in year two!

Ella,
I’ve never met you, but through God’s amazing ways I stumbled across your parent’s website! The first time I read about you, I realized we share a birthday – I hope yours was wonderful. Your parents have been amazing witnesses for God. Thank you for keeping me focused on our Amazing God and all that He does in our lives daily.
God Bless You,
Cindy

Happy Birthday!!!! (on your Birthday this time) from all of us.
At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” He called a little child and had him stand among them. And he said: “I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. “And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me.
Matthew 18: 1-5
